I'm finally able to play along for the November challenge! It feels so good to be back - I've missed crafting!

Here's the recipe for this month

And here's my take:

I flipped the sketch and omitted the 2 extra pictures and the banner option. I wanted the focus to be on the picture. In case you missed my last post, we are expecting our first child in March of next year. So with the theme of this month's challenge being Thanksgiving and the journalling prompt being something you're thankful for, it was the perfect time to show off our baby's picture!

Since it's a pretty clean and simple layout, I'm not going to do any detailed shots, but I will say what the journalling says. "After a miscarriage in December 2012, we were excited to be expecting again, but nervous too."After hearing your heartbeat we felt a little better, but this picture thrilled us! Thankful for you indeed."
